WHAT IS CADAP?The
Connecticut AIDS Drug Assistance Program (CADAP) helps eligible people living
with AIDS/HIV, including immigrants without green cards, pay for federally approved
HIV antiretroviral drugs and drugs which prevent opportunistic infections
associated with AIDS/HIV. CADAP will now pay health insurance premiums for
anyone who is already covered by a health plan and is eligible for the program.

COST:No fee

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?:

- People with AIDS or HIV who have a
net countable income at or below 400% of
the Federal Poverty Level.
- People who have been diagnosed by a
licensed physician as having AIDS, HIV+
symptomatic, and/or an HIV infection.
- Individuals applying for the program need
not be a Medicaid recipient, but must
apply for Medicaid within two weeks of approval for the program. There is no
asset restriction for CADAP.
NOTE: A person receiving prescription drug assistance from CADAP does NOT need
to be covered by a health plan.
